The police official also said the victim will be called to record her statement before a magistrate.

"She has been fully cooperating with the police and her statement is very crucial for the case," the official said.

Investigating officer Sunita Sawant has already met the victim in Mumbai and recorded her statement yesterday.

The Goa police had on November 22 lodged an FIR against Tejpal under IPC sections 376 (rape), 376 (2)(k) (rape by a person of a woman in his custody taking advantage of his official position) and 354 (outraging modesty) in connection with the incident.

The police had yesterday issued an "immigration check post alert" against Tejpal so that he cannot leave the country.
